Random Doctor Who Facts You Might Not Know, Part 69
One time while escaping from a cell, Romana commented that it would be child's play to unlock the door with her sonic screwdriver. She then said it was literally child's play as doing so had been a game back on Gallifrey. (Audio: Subterranea)
One of Jamie's distant relations became a spy during World War II and used the name "the Doctor." (Audio: Operation Werewolf)
On his report, Borusa gave Theta Sigma a 7 in the subject of "Physical Inactivity." He commented that his pupil seems to think he is a mountain goat. (Short story: Report on Term's Work)
Memory lanterns are Time Lord devices that resemble paper lanterns but record an individual's thoughts and memories. During the Time War, many Gallifreyans released these lanterns as a desperate ploy to not be forgotten, as they thought they would all die. (Novel: Engines of War)
Ben, Polly, and Jamie played with a ouija board on the TARDIS. This caused a dark cloud from the time vortex to slip inside Jamie's mind, affecting his behavior. The Second Doctor banished the cloud by reading a recipe for Bajaxx stew written in Ancient Gallifreyan. (Short story: Something at the Door)
Jarra To killed the previous overseer of the Axis. Eventually, a Time Lord came to investigate, but they killed them. By the time the Fifth Doctor and his companions landed there, they described the corpse as "rank" with oozing flesh and insect larvae. (Audio: The Axis of Insanity)
After leaving Nyssa, Tegan, and Marc behind, the Fifth Doctor had several adventures on his own. Eventually, he encountered his Eleventh self, and he decided to return to his companions because he didn't want to be like him - companionless and disparaged in 1892. (Audio: Thin Time)
Time Vortex leeches live in the time vortex, and the Doctor had thought they were a myth from Ancient Gallifreyan songs until one of them clung to his Eleventh self's TARDIS exterior. (Comic: Space in Dimension Relative and Time)
One time, a man called Gaylord Lefevre played a game of cards against the Toymaker. He cheated and used a needle to mark cards, but the Toymaker was aware of this and altered his cards to be a hand full of jokers when Gaylord wasn't looking. The Toymaker claimed he wasn't cheating but instead following a new rule that Gaylord had introduced - that cheating was acceptable. (Comic: The Greatest Gamble)
Gallifrey has a transtube, which is basically an underground train. It has a central station under the Capitol. (Novel: The Ancestor Cell)
One time after the Seventh Doctor was knocked out, he drowsily told Ace that he had had a terrible dream. A man with ringlets had been reaching out to him, saying, "Come in, Number Seven, your time is up." He was talking about the Eighth Doctor. (Audio: The Silurian Candidate)
Maria Mazzini once commented on how powerful the Fifth Doctor's thighs were - after slapping them. (Audio: Serpent in the Silver Mask)
One time, the Fourth Doctor decided to take Sarah Jane to Geshtinanna. The journey in the TARDIS took nine weeks, during which both became bored and tired. While traveling in the time vortex, the clocks in the TARDIS all stopped, and the Doctor then detected the remains of another TARDIS in the vortex, trapped their because the pilot had made the mistake of locking their course. They were worried that they too had fallen to the same fate and were unable to change course, but when the day of materialization finally came, they successfully materialized. The Doctor realized that the TARDIS had stopped all the clocks out of respect for her fallen fellow TARDIS. Even after nine weeks of travel, they materialized nowhere close to Geshtinanna. (Short story: Eternity)
The Seventh Doctor has shifted his genetic makeup enough to disguise himself before and mimic someone else. He admitted that he learned this trick from the Master, who frequently used regeneration as a disguise. (Novel: Original Sin)
On Gallifrey, there are two hundred and eight tenses in their languages. They don't translate well. (Novel: The Crystal Bucephalus)

“The female companions in the classic series never did anything but scream and twist their ankles”
#i find the common perception of the classic ladies as weak to be absolutely hilarious. my first thought is ‘feral’.#classic who#susan foreman#barbara wright#vicki pallister#sara kingdom#dodo chaplet#polly wright#victoria waterfield#zoe heriot#liz shaw#jo grant#sarah jane smith#leela#romana i#romana ii#nyssa#tegan jovanka#peri brown#melanie bush#ace mcshane#no katarina due to her unfortunately dying before she could do anything. i love her and would include her if there were anything to include.#liz also didn’t get very long to do a ton but i think science is pretty cool so she still gets her awesome points

Polly smiles and speaks the oldest and most powerful incantation of all. He replies in kind, "I love you, too".

There is so much untapped potential in DW running into old companions. The School Reunion episode was such a good story and I want more. It doesn't even have to be whole episodes. Just acknowledging them even. The Doctor and companion getting into trouble and arrested. He uses his one call and ten minutes later the officers are baffled as they let them go. King Steven Taylor just pardoned this weirdo! An adventure doesn't go so well. A young child being left parentless, the Doctor knows they'll be in good care at an orphanage run by Polly and Ben. One of the companions get sick with a weird disease that doesn't make itself apparent until after they get back into the Tardis.... Better take them to get treated at one of the best medical research hospitals in the galaxy. So off to visit Nyssa. Visiting the planet Trion and reminiscing about a cynical ginger he used to know.
The Tardis landed a bit too far away from where they need to go or the Doctor needs to chase after an alien. Cut to an outside shot of UNIT with the Doctor speeding out of there in Bessie (companion holding on for dear life). I just crave more call backs and connections to the wider whoniverse.

Last night I finally finished all the Classic Companions in my Doctor Who series. Decided to put them all together to see how they looked, and I rather like it! A future poster, maybe?
(Before anyone asks about Liz, she's on the as-yet-unfinished UNIT poster. I haven't forgotten her. Please, I've had so many people ask me about Liz)

Ben and Polly on watch for the final lantern signal of The Annabelle
I crudely smashed two telesnaps from The Highlanders together to create a nice picture of my two loves and drew it
